My family and I were watching the start of the new season of Eureka and the next show to air was the pilot of "Warehouse 13" a show with a similar premise to Sci-fi's other original series Sanctuary.
Two top Federal Agents, a woman Joanne Kelly (hard working status climber) and a man Pete Lattimer (screw off with natural talent)  (Mulder and Skully anyone?) are transferred to a large metal structure in the middle of the Bad Lands of South Dakota to work with Saul Rubinek (played by Artie Nielson). And from there they must traverse the world stopping dangerous objects from ruining people's lives by putting them into America's attic Warehouse 13.
Also there's a ferret and Artie Nielson.

It was pretty good and I'm definately going to watch more episodes. To those who also watched it I'd like to hear your thoughts.

I saw an episode, it might have been the same one. Involving that purple goo? Idk if it was the first one.

Its definitely cool, but I just want everyone to be aware that this idea was prooooobably taken from the warehouse from Raiders of the Lost Ark. Its a pretty cool concept to have a show just on the mysterious warehouse, and i think i read on some Indy website that the Ark makes a cameo. Cool show.

Ummm.... Saul Rubinek is an actor... Artie is the character he plays.
Joanne Kelly is not the name of the character either, that's the name of the actress who plays Myka Bering.

It wasn't bad, but I was hoping for something a little less tacky. I agree the purple neutralizing goo is a bit questionable, and there quite a few plot holes I noticed in the pilot. Pilots are usually worse than the actual show though, I'll keep watching in the coming weeks, but if it fails to captivate me I'll probably lose interest within three weeks.
Tricia Helfer is guest staring this coming episode, so I'll definitely be watching for her!

Thanks, I was going off an internet article and must have read it wrong. Generally I barely know who people are in movies and tv as it is.

Maybe if they'd cut half an hour or so off the pilot it would have been easier to get into.
